Technology SIG Purpose
The purpose of the Technology Special Interest Group (SIG) is to share information about postsecondary institutional policies and procedures regarding the provision of adaptive technology (AT) for students with disabilities; and the development, procurement, and use of accessible Web pages, distance learning programs, videotapes, and other technologies on campus. The Technology SIG recruits speakers for AHEAD conferences and suggests special programs that AHEAD might undertake in the area of technology access for postsecondary students with disabilities. Members of this SIG encourage individuals to submit proposals for AHEAD national and regional conferences.

The Technology SIG maintains on this Web page a list of frequently asked questions (FAQs) and answers provided by SIG members as well as lists of technology-related electronic discussion groups and websites that might be of interest to AHEAD members. Content of this website is provided by SIG participants and does not necessarily reflect the opinions of AHEAD administration or the organizations for whom these individuals work.
